    Solar Rover

    The 4M Solar Rover is a green science kit in which children build a small vehicle that drives on sunlight alone. They assemble the chassis, fit the motor so its worm gear meshes with the rear axle gear, add four wheels, and mount an adjustable solar panel with reflectors on a support arm. A clean, empty soda can becomes the rover's body, encouraging recycling, and a transparent plastic shell is also included as an alternative body. In sunshine, the panel's solar cells generate current that turns the motor, while the gears slow the wheels so the motor can drive them more easily. Indoors, a 60-watt incandescent desk lamp can stand in for the sun under adult supervision, which is handy for school science fairs. A small crosshead screwdriver and an empty soda can are needed from home. No batteries are required.

    Solar Hybrid Rover Robot

    The 4M Hybrid Solar-Powered Rover Robot is a buildable robot with two power sources. Children assemble the body, gearbox, wheels, arms, eyes and an adjustable solar panel on a support arm, then wire the solar unit and battery holder to the motor. A switch selects the power mode: in sunshine, the solar panel drives the motor directly; when there is not enough light, the robot runs from a battery instead, so it can be used indoors and on cloudy days. The gearbox reduces the motor's speed so the robot rolls along at a steady pace. The guide explains how solar cells convert light into electricity and where hybrid solar-battery systems are used in everyday devices. One AAA battery and a small crosshead screwdriver are required and not included. Adult supervision is recommended during assembly.

    Solar Robot

    The 4M Solar Robot teaches children how a solar panel and motor can make a machine walk. They attach left and right legs, feet, leg links and arms to a gear case that already contains the motor and cams, then mount the solar panel on its holder. In sunshine, the solar panel powers the motor, and the cams move the legs and arms so the robot walks without any batteries. Using the included template and everyday items such as a paper cup and forks, the robot can be transformed into a dinosaur or monster robot, encouraging creative reuse of household materials. The kit contains the solar panel, gear case with motor, legs, arms, feet, screws and a dinosaur head and tail template. A small crosshead screwdriver, an empty paper cup and two forks are needed from home, and adult supervision is required.

    Buzz Wire Making Kit

    The 4M KidzLabs Buzz Wire Making Kit lets children build the classic steady-hand game while learning how an electric circuit works. They shape a bendable metal wire into a course, make a wand loop with a handle, and connect a battery case and electric buzzer on a pegged plastic platform. To play, the player guides the wand from one end of the shaped wire to the other without touching it. If the wand makes contact, the circuit is completed and the buzzer sounds. Because the wire can be bent into any shape, children can design courses of different difficulty and challenge friends and family to the fastest buzz-free run. The kit includes the platform, handle, battery case, buzzer, plastic and metal pegs, bendable metal wire and insulated wire. Two AA batteries and a wire cutter are needed; adult help is advised when cutting and bending the wire.
